Catalyst::Engine::HTTP::Restarter::Watcher - Watch for changed application files

    my $watcher = Catalyst::Engine::HTTP::Restarter::Watcher->new(
        directory => '/path/to/MyApp',
        regex     => '\.yml$|\.yaml$|\.conf|\.pm$',
        delay     => 1,
    );
    
    while (1) {
        my @changed_files = $watcher->watch();
    }

This class monitors a directory of files for changes made to any file matching a regular expression. It correctly handles new files added to the application as well as files that are deleted.
new ( directory => $path [, regex => $regex, delay => $delay ] ) Creates a new Watcher object.
watch Returns a list of files that have been added, deleted, or changed since the last time watch was called.
